Summer rolls + Summer Salads & some summer running

00:04






We are counting the days to our Croatia holiday ( 6 more to go!)
The preparations have started with eating light and fresh food, going for regular runs,
ordering swimsuits and straw hats and just being overall excited.
I am quite addicted to amazing summer salads right now and keep trying mixing new dressings and things.
Friday was very special since I met my friends beautiful little baby girl Amelie for the first time.
Oh these big eyes... It was a very nice afternoon, of catching up with her mum Josie over coffee & cake.
This summer in London has been pretty rubbish so far and I am so looking forward to getting some sun.
Tonight Dave surprised me with a Asian dinner, including delicious veggie dumplings and summer rolls. We haven't made them in so long.
Summer rolls feel like a special dish because we made them on our first date, and also on the day we moved in together and started this little blog.
And I am just as excited to wake up next to this man every day- moving in together feels like yesterday and yet we have already done so much together.

    I'm more of a spring rolls fan (well, also spring in general, haha). Salads are perfect for summer!

    HOW positively exciting :) :) My bf and I are travelling Europe this year too, and have 28 days to wait until we set off (Croatia is on our map). We are trying to do the same with light eatng before we go, and I actually just got back in the door from a run :) Happy packing!! I am taking lots of plains to mix it up with bold accessories.
